Saint Anne's Catholic ChurchPresbytery/parochial/curate's house · 481 ydExplorer Tom Saint Anne's Catholic Church has a fanlight shaped like a teardrop, which I find deeply emotional and slightly weird. It’s hiding behind aluminium doors now, so give that little glass drop a wink if you pass by on the road.
Fairy fort / ringfort in BohernabreenaFairy fort / ringfort · 488 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / ringfort in Bohernabreena is gone, probably off giving up chocolate for Lent to make room for new housing. It’s just a steep slope now, but the memory of being a fort lingers like bad breath. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want from history?
Children's playground666 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Children's playground in County Dublin smells like old socks and adventure. I think the swings are actually wings for flying. Jump off and hope for the best.
Glenville HouseFarm house · 760 ydExplorer Tom Glenville House farm house has a dramatic profile that screams 'look at me' on Kiltipper Road. It’s evolved over time, like a good wine, or a stubborn old farmer. Tell the keeper you’re just here for the vibes and the history!
Pit-burial in GlassamuckyPit-burial · 798 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Pit-burial in Glassamucky is basically an upside-down pot with some bones inside, found while quarrying topsoil like it was nothing. It’s like finding a receipt from 1978 that explains why the ground felt weird there. Go on a wet day; the mud suits the mood of a guy buried in a jar.
New PlaygroundChildren's playground · 1258 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom New Playground in County Dublin is confusing everyone with its generic name. It’s probably full of brand-new monsters that haven’t learned how to scare yet. Go introduce yourself to the new arrivals!
Carty's CastleRuins · 1550 ydExplorer Tom Carty's Castle is a ruin that’s lost its plot. It’s in County Dublin, doing absolutely nothing except being old and crumbling. If you see it, tell it to hurry up and finish decaying already!
Jim Lawlor Bridge PlaqueVisitor information · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Jim Lawlor Bridge Plaque honors a guy who gave his all to Tallaght. It’s a nice thought, but the bridge just keeps holding traffic up.
Slieve GorraMountain / peak · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Slieve Gorra is in County Dublin but people confuse it with Slieve League cliffs. Don’t let that happen to you; just take a picture of the actual hill and not the famous cliffs far away in Donegal.
Montpelier HillMountain / peak · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Montpelier Hill is famous for the Hell Fire Club at dawn. The sun comes up over it in a mysterious way, so watch the light change and pretend you’re about to make a dangerous pact with a devil.
Dublin Mountains Way Hellfire & Massey SpurWalking route · 1.8 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Dublin Mountains Way Hellfire & Massey Spur again in County Dublin, it's becoming a bit of a theme. I bet the 'hellfire' is just the sun beating down on your head. Stay hydrated and ignore the overly dramatic trail markers.
Massey WoodWood · 2.2 miExplorer Tom Massey Wood in County Dublin has ruins of a garden and saw mill. Lord Massey built it, then it broke. Classic. The Dublin Mountains Way goes through here, so follow the path!
